TI Delivers Industry's First Wireless Digital Baseband Processor on Advanced 65-nm Process

Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) (NYSE: TXN) announced it is delivering fully functional wireless digital baseband devices from its advanced 65-nanometer (nm) CMOS process technology. The announcement fulfills TI's commitment made one year ago when it disclosed details of the 65-nm process and techniques to shrink the 90-nm design area by half, leverage strained-silicon to boost transistor performance by 40 percent, and reduce leakage power from idle transistors by a factor of 1000. TI is among the first semiconductor manufacturers to deliver working 65-nm products.
